Is it really Wednesday already? Sometimes it’s so hard just to take each day for what it’s worth! When you get into such a regular schedule, you just go from class to class, not even thinking about the time that is passing. Well, I’ve been trying to focus on that lately. Trying to remember what it was when I was younger that made days seem endless. Given, it probably had something to do with an inability to read a clock or understand the use of time-tracking devices. Perhaps that is why, which each passing year, time seems to go by faster. The more I understand about what goes on around me, the more I assume and therefore the more I take for granted. By taking time for granted are we allowing it to slip through our fingers? This reminds me of the character in Catch-22, can’t recall his name at the moment, but he would do all sorts of incredibly boring things, just so that he could get the feeling that he was living longer–cheating time, in a way, by constantly yearning for time to go faster and in doing so causing it to mentally slow down. The problem is that I’ve actually tried this method. Frankly, however, I continue to find that no matter what situation I’m in, I always seem to be able to find something enjoyable about it. I figure if I’m doing it, then I should be taking it for what it’s worth, whatever that may be…..well, I think I’ve rambled long enough on this topic. If you decided to read it, it’s probably already taken minutes of time out of your life! You’d better hurry and go do something productive!!


Much love to all.

    The guy from Catch-22 is Yossirain I think. And Franz Ferdianand is sweet.

    Good point, although productivity is rather overrated, too, at times.

    And I second the notion proposed above.

    It was Dunbar. My dear friend Allison reminded me.

    I wasn’t sure weather or not you meant the main character. See, I haven’t actually FINISHED Catch-22. Yet.
